Lightning in TGEA

by Dean Walther · in Torque Game Engine Advanced · 03/19/2007 (5:44 am) · 6 replies

Hi All,
I don't post all that often but sometimes you just don't see what you are looking for. I mostly do searches and browse thru these forums as I can usually find an answer to what I'm looking for. Anyway, I thought I would revisit the subject of lightning. I am trying to port the GPGT Mazerunner example over to TGEA and for the most part it is going well. However, in one of the examples it talks about activating the lightning. I have been able to do this just fine in TGE but even with datablock construction, etc I have had no luck making it work in TGEA. I read in a previous post way back when that someone had gotten the lightning to work. I did try that resource, but still nothing. Any help or info in this regard would be greatly appreciated. I am, of course, referring to TGEA 1.0.
Thanks for your input.
Dean

Josh Moore did a rewrite of it a while ago. I haven't seen him on in a while though. You could always try to port it yourself. It probably wouldn't be too difficult to get a basic port of it done.

Thanks, that's the resource to which I refer as not able to get working in TGEA 1.0. If someone has gotten it to work please let me know how you did it if you would. Thanks.

I guess I need to assume that no one else has gotten lightning to work in TGEA? Anybody. Thanks

That code link points to a page that I don't seem to have access to.
